Personally, even with spirits, all of these spirits are tough as nails. I also think that you should've added Trevor C. Belmont, at one point, you got it in the bag, but next thing you know, YOULL BE TRYING TO FIGHT THE ASSIST AND THE PEOPLE WITH A FINAL SMASH.
once that happened for me seeing her far slowly to her death i jumped up with joy knowing my misery with the bitch would finally end. also making sure i stayed alive before she died.also my friend had the same thing happen to him and told the same tragic yet loving tale of the plauline spirit battle
Use a spirit with the staff equipped ability. Combine with spirits that increase shooting damage. Two well time hits at the start of the match and its over. Three if you are not lucky.
Fun thing. I won my first battle against Ho Oh due to the AI having some kind of stroke and just walked of the arena. I was rather chocked to say the least.
Same thing happened to me when I went to fight The Boss ZSS, having summoned a Madama Butterfly for it. I psyched myself to finally beat her, only for her to SD
Anyone remember Ashley? The reversed controls flicking on and off at random, the microgames, and opponents sheet resistance and refusal to die all were the earliest indicators to me that World of Light wasn’t playing around
shout out to 9 volt and 18 volt, with sheriff hostile assists that take away any chances of recovering, while the galaga items kill you when your hp gets too high. It's too many things to focus on at once
The Boss's fight is the most appropriately difficult. She was so satisfying to take down in MGS3, and it's the same thing here. Plus, the homage is my favorite in the game.
The only way I beat it spiritless was by saving that battle until I got Ganondorf. I constantly jumped to avoid poison damage and landed as many aerials as I could. Once my FS Meter was full I was able to knock her off the stage and quickly spike her with Ganondorf''s Final smash. I'm not the type to cheese battles with Kirby like a lot of people do
@@BasementSkeleton97 yeah, I can't knock em for doing it but no I fought my damnest with Link and somehow the AI killed itself took me an hour it was hell Good on you for that thought took actual balls for that lol.
For most spirit battles where the opponent is huge, play my boy Ness. His PK Fire spam is get most CPU's stuck and confused, it's especially useful in stamina battles where you could just stand at a safe distance and watch them burn. Hope this helps anyone getting into WoL 👊😎👌
@@MrSolomonGaming Could just summon her.... honestly I've acquired over 500 spirits, 20 of them Legendary before doing the story mode, all from the Spirit Board or from Summoning. Still to this day I've yet to try the story >_>
@ANTHONY KRAVCHISHIN can people like you leave him alone? "Oh no, stickmaster is commenting on a video! I mean, he's not offending me in anyway, but I still hate him, because he's everywhere!"
Only reason I haven't started my own Spiritless run is that I'm waiting for the 3.0 update (just in case that messes with previous strategies). Once that drops, I will for certain be recording that for my channel!
7:29 I beat it by -Using an advantage primary spirit at lvl 99 that has three support slots -Using a metal killer support spirit -Using the “Health gained every K.O.” support spirit -Using a tank, like Ganon I beat this first try with this setup, and, I even ended the fight with the same amount of health I had at the start
When fighting the Pauline spirit, Peach went around me when the time slow happened and since I had such a powerful spirit I side B’d and her shield got knocked making her fall into the abyss. My luck grew 3 sizes that day.
I spent roughly 2 and a half hours trying to defeat this spirit. In the end though, Zero Suit Samus jumped off the stage and recovered the wrong way like with what happened to you. I was so pissed off though because it felt like she had pity for me and did it on purpose. Needless to say I left that match feeling unsatisfied with a godly spirit.
@@Sean_Bird they also pronounce Ylisse as "Ehlise"(just Elise with more emphasis on the E) So a LOT of people I see take the pronunciations they use with The Dead Sea amount of salt
And for arguments sake let’s assume that it does work, Lucas uses absorb and then what? That gives Charizard the perfect opportunity to use flare blitz
How about hardest spirit battles, EVEN with using spirits and skills? Also, 9 volts & 18 volts and Rayman drives me absolutely nuts, even with spirits and abilities.
Interviewer: So, do you have any skills? Me: Well, I did beat Pauline in two attempts. Interviewer: YOU'RE HIRED! Edit: I don't want to sound rude, but I don't care how many times it took you to beat Pauline.
Ah yes Caeda is one hell a battle, i captured all other spirits, but that one even with spirits equipped! And you forgot to mention that they also kill you in like 3 hits

For Tabu here's what I did: - Equip Majora's mask spirit (Skull Kid, health leech) - Support spirit will be a critical health healing spirit - I played MegaMan, his ranged attacks can do wonders if you keep your distance, I mostly utilized the side b. - Only go in for melee attacks sometimes and when necessary, I only went in for MegaMans dash attack sometimes with some aerials and a few charged up smashes Hope this helps for people who are just getting into WoL 👊😎👌
Funny thing is, the description of the boss spirit is “defense increases when at high damage,” her damage increases when under 150 hp, after 30 damage has been done
Tip: With enemies like Ho-oh, or generally any other enemy with the curry breathing, you can use characters like Simon/Richter and spam Up-B. It’s not always 100% possible, but if you use Up-B on the enemy, their curry breath will take you out of free-Fall mode, meaning you can immediately use it again. If done correctly, you can spam it several times and lift them to the blast zone.
My advice: With Ho-oh, hope that charizard is like my battle where he took over 100% damage from the fire pillars in the second map and see him fly into the abyss :)
@@petegordon1648 Yeah, that happened to me too, but instead of the fire pillars hitting him, the water from the 3rd(?) form washed him away, like a leaf falling off of a bare tree.
The one that made me crying my guts out was wind fish oh my god that is the worst spirit I ever had to face I used sephiroth almost everytime and by luck I was somehow able to get the spirit
I think an exception to the no-spirit rule for certain spirits would have made this ranking better. Most of the battles on this list were designed for certain spirits to be necessary, and were only difficult because you didn't allow yourself to use the necessary spirit.
I agree with this. The Dry Bowser battle is intended to be free once you get a spirit that protects against lava. Same for any battle with heavy wind and other hazards. The idea is that if you find a spirit that you are struggling with, that you can come back once you have a better team of spirits to assist.
Yeah the game clearly doesn't intend for you not to use Spirits as you do like 1 damage a hit without them, and several of these battles are made much easier from Spirits than others.
@@Pokemonhacker1337 I wouldn't exactly call Dry Bowser "free", since he's still a hard hitter who gets curry breath and increased defense. But still, I'd definitely consider him easier than the likes of Dr. Wily or Giga Mac
@@SamTheMarioMan It's a free(r) fight after you get and upgrade either Balder or Diancie (forgot which had the advantage in this fight) along with fire immunity. You see, the curry counts as a projectile so these two evolved spirits who give you Franklin badge help you withstand the curry and even damage back at Bowser, so your only worry is to defeat Bowser enough for the defense buffs to not get intrusive and for your badge to not expire Oh, and btw. If you are good at using either Ness or Lucas, that can also help since their down B heals with projectiles or so I remember
Even with no spirits, with Kirby and King Dedede, Jeff is easy…. You just need to go to the blast zone holding *B* and then when you suck one inkling you turnaround very quick and press *A* to inject them in the blast zone so they can die immediately if you do the same thing with the three of them. Also watch out for the cars
I couldn't beat Jeff with bowser, who can spam the same exact body slam move, with level 99 spirits. I had to go to the dark realm and get super strong spirits just to beat him
Hardest fight for me was Guile. You had to deal with a Captain Falcon with increased attack power (which isn't stated, but I have a feeling he does) all fighters having lower jump power, and fighting the Guile assist trophy, not to forget to mention it's a stamina battle.
For the Pauline spirit I got tired of trying. Then I had a plan. I got the skill where you get 2 Final Smashes and I planned on using Pac-Man. Well my plan did get rid of D.K and Mario but then Peach somehow managed to kill herself. I had a lot of happiness for obvious reasons but also sadness because I wasn't the one to end her.
For number 8, use Franklin Badge and a Super Armour spirit (Gold Mario) and spam up smash on your starting spot with any character, before the stage transiston to the fire phase, move to the center.
9v and 18v were brutal for me in my current (first) playthrough, as well as kappin without having any wind resist spirits. i managed to get dr wily using metal killer, two stamina up spirits, and spamming byleth side special
Just a heads-up, I know that this is over a year old, but during the Dry Bowser Spirit Battle, you could've used Kirby's stone to land safely on the lava and restore your ledge grabs
Dr.Willy: is this another fighter for me to *destroy* Hero joins the chat Metal mega man left the chat Metal mega man left the chat Metal mega man left the chat Metal mega man left the chat Metal mega man left the chat Metal mega man left the chat Metal mega man left the chat Metal mega man left the chat Dr.Willy:........... Hero uses magic burst Dr.Willy left the chat
wait so you’re telling me that i beat the ho-oh spirit in one try with a level 2 eevee sprit but i couldn’t defeat tabuu with a max level dlc spirit? doubt it
Giga Mac literally drove me insane, twice, yeah. Firstly on spirit board, I used Bowser performing down b to kill him like some people did in their videos, but had no idea how. Second time using Sephiroth and just jumped around to get any chance to shoot fire ball at him or use the straight down stab and quickly run away like there is no tomorrow...
*Nathaniel discusses Giga mac spirit* Nathaniel: I don't wanna know how much damage Little Mac can deal with his final smash Me: I've lived long enough to see it. VERY FREAKING HIGH.
In case anyone forgot, NairoMK 100% completed this whole Story Mode without Spirits. Think about it. Not to mention, he beat the Ho-Oh spirit first try.
He should try the phantom thieves of hearts spirit without spirits or booster things. Living hell that is. 1 year trying to beat that and i failed with many characters.
I used Mega Man with a super armour/hyper smash attacks spirit team. From there, all it took was spamming forward smash, and with the addition of Double Final Smash and Fast FS meter charge, it was far easier than I expected.
With the special floors, just use Kirby's down special attack and when you turn back into Kirby, start flying. The floor can't hurt you if you are stone and it also can't if you are flying.
For strong wind, King K Rool dashing will keep you stationary and his dash attack can never go off of ledges, so you can spam dash attack for strong wind stages.
Pauline Spirit:"Jump up super high"
Also Pauline Spirit:Decreases your jump power during the fight
How f@$&ing ironic! HOW F@$&ING IRONIC!
As soon as she said that in the fight my jump power decreased
Ironic.
Logic 👍

Honestly, I think Alucard should've been on this list. The only saving grace is if you have an Assist Killer spirit, like sheriff.

Christopher Moon all of the characters killed themselves for me.
I saw another player used Olimar against Pauline and he struck her in one hit. I can't remember what Spirit team the player used though.
7:29 I beat it by
-Using an advantage primary spirit at lvl 99 that has three support slots
-Using a metal killer support spirit
-Using the “Health gained every K.O.” support spirit
-Using a tank, like Ganon
I beat this first try with this setup, and, I even ended the fight with the same amount of health I had at the start
The challenge is to beat them without using spirits
When even God himself has to use cheese, you know that it's a hard spirit battle.
Listen I only use bowser
Big Boss + Heal on KO support spirit is the best strat for this, indeed
Hero: *Metal slash*

These are hard enough with Spirits and the skill tree turned on.

Pretty much so. Some legend spirits are kinda good like viridi for tabuu

Exactly tf
For that dry bowser one, I didn't have a lava immunity spirit, only lava resists. I had to use Steve's blocks to stay afloat

Zheng Wen Yu finally someone talks about 9 &18 volt
Same with 9 and 18 volt spirit battle being absolutely ballsy
Have you tried the ore club?
Use Ganondorf. They're annoying but if you have the Double Smashes Skill Tree, I killed everything in Galeem's control
Oh god, they took forever, how they aren't in the list is BEYOND me.
Best way to cheese the metal megan’s for me was with Min-Min, just spam the smash stack with the dragon arms
I also did that for *The Boss* one
Interviewer: So, do you have any skills?
Me: Well, I did beat Pauline in two attempts.
Interviewer: YOU'RE HIRED!
Edit: I don't want to sound rude, but I don't care how many times it took you to beat Pauline.
It took me a long time but I did it
I legit beat it on hard with one attempt with my brother, who had been struggling with it for his account for hours, sitting next to me.
Same (on hard)
Not gonna lie, I beat gigs MAC in two attempts. With meta Ridley.
@@gregorycattleman8561 me too (on easy)
How to beat Giga Mac:
1. Pick Donkey Kong
2. Foward Throw
3. Profit
Thats the speedrun strat believe it or not
Incineroar’s Up Special would also help.
Or(what I did) get corrin and just repeatably jump on the rope getting height so I could use his/her down smash every time he comes by.
Is that actually a achieve thing
Thats how I beat it

All of them are easy with spirits and upgrades, Pauline is the only Spirit he mentioned that can still be a challenge with both on.
Even Pauline is so hard that I couldn’t beat her with the best spirits

@@sxgifs9648 oof
I won thanks to Ganon's Smash Meter
LoL
For Tabu here's what I did:
- Equip Majora's mask spirit (Skull Kid, health leech)
- Support spirit will be a critical health healing spirit
- I played MegaMan, his ranged attacks can do wonders if you keep your distance, I mostly utilized the side b.
- Only go in for melee attacks sometimes and when necessary, I only went in for MegaMans dash attack sometimes with some aerials and a few charged up smashes
Hope this helps for people who are just getting into WoL 👊😎👌
Funny thing is, the description of the boss spirit is “defense increases when at high damage,” her damage increases when under 150 hp, after 30 damage has been done
My guess is, the boss shouldn't take any damage. Any damage is already too high lol
Tip:
With enemies like Ho-oh, or generally any other enemy with the curry breathing, you can use characters like Simon/Richter and spam Up-B. It’s not always 100% possible, but if you use Up-B on the enemy, their curry breath will take you out of free-Fall mode, meaning you can immediately use it again. If done correctly, you can spam it several times and lift them to the blast zone.
i just use lucas down b
All I do is use a Franklin Badge
My advice: With Ho-oh, hope that charizard is like my battle where he took over 100% damage from the fire pillars in the second map and see him fly into the abyss :)
@@petegordon1648 Yeah, that happened to me too, but instead of the fire pillars hitting him, the water from the 3rd(?) form washed him away, like a leaf falling off of a bare tree.
I would use the holy water
For me, Jeff is personally VERY hard. I FINALLY got him yesterday! He may take up all the extra Spirit slots, but it was worth it!
@Loyal Jaguars fan since 2015_2-8_Duuuvalll I tried with DK but I kept dying, so I used pac-man and I got lucky with the final smash
Which character did you use?
The only one on this list that made me rage quit was no. 4.
Fax
The one that made me crying my guts out was wind fish oh my god that is the worst spirit I ever had to face I used sephiroth almost everytime and by luck I was somehow able to get the spirit
Btw the way to Caeda is See-da
I think an exception to the no-spirit rule for certain spirits would have made this ranking better. Most of the battles on this list were designed for certain spirits to be necessary, and were only difficult because you didn't allow yourself to use the necessary spirit.
I agree with this. The Dry Bowser battle is intended to be free once you get a spirit that protects against lava. Same for any battle with heavy wind and other hazards. The idea is that if you find a spirit that you are struggling with, that you can come back once you have a better team of spirits to assist.
I'd argue number 2 was still hard... especially if you did it the "true" way.
Snake with young Ocelot spirit.
Yeah the game clearly doesn't intend for you not to use Spirits as you do like 1 damage a hit without them, and several of these battles are made much easier from Spirits than others.
@@Pokemonhacker1337 I wouldn't exactly call Dry Bowser "free", since he's still a hard hitter who gets curry breath and increased defense. But still, I'd definitely consider him easier than the likes of Dr. Wily or Giga Mac
@@SamTheMarioMan It's a free(r) fight after you get and upgrade either Balder or Diancie (forgot which had the advantage in this fight) along with fire immunity. You see, the curry counts as a projectile so these two evolved spirits who give you Franklin badge help you withstand the curry and even damage back at Bowser, so your only worry is to defeat Bowser enough for the defense buffs to not get intrusive and for your badge to not expire
Oh, and btw. If you are good at using either Ness or Lucas, that can also help since their down B heals with projectiles or so I remember
11:54
That transition was to good to be true
The worst transition in the history if transitions probably ever
That was a beautiful transition to a sponser XD also *W H E R E I S*
*J E F F*
Jeff was so hard I couldn’t even beat him with Little mac
Lol I beat Jeff first try with Mario
Even with no spirits, with Kirby and King Dedede, Jeff is easy….
You just need to go to the blast zone holding *B* and then when you suck one inkling you turnaround very quick and press *A* to inject them in the blast zone so they can die immediately if you do the same thing with the three of them. Also watch out for the cars
Yeah for sure.
I couldn't beat Jeff with bowser, who can spam the same exact body slam move, with level 99 spirits. I had to go to the dark realm and get super strong spirits just to beat him
Hardest fight for me was Guile. You had to deal with a Captain Falcon with increased attack power (which isn't stated, but I have a feeling he does) all fighters having lower jump power, and fighting the Guile assist trophy, not to forget to mention it's a stamina battle.
Finally someone who has the same problem as me… Guile is the only spirit in the story mode which I could not beat at the hardest difficulty 😢
For the Pauline spirit I got tired of trying. Then I had a plan. I got the skill where you get 2 Final Smashes and I planned on using Pac-Man. Well my plan did get rid of D.K and Mario but then Peach somehow managed to kill herself. I had a lot of happiness for obvious reasons but also sadness because I wasn't the one to end her.
Sean Squiers oh off of the skill tree I got that two
THANKS YOU GAVE ME A ****ING IDEA
I cheesed it, used kirby with the jet pack, inhaled her jumped off the edge then got back and tried not to die while she fell.
Imagine the Pauline battle with lava floor and sudden damage , i wouldn't even try.
Firestorm . exe if you add stamina to it, it’s gonna be even worse
@@yoshimiester507thesadyoshi2 and high jump gravity
RIP Spiritless Challenge
8:01
You could've spammed Down-B as Lucas... If you wanted to cheese.
(Also insert Ashley being hard joke here)
I went Lucas for that battle and my god was it way easier
I used Kirby's up special to cheese this one
BEEG YOSHI I defeated her 3rd try on hard mode without control reversal spirit
Haha lucas jokes
Yeah, exactly what i did but with more nair spams
You could also use your spirit list which automatically allows you to find a spirit and battle it. It will save much more time.
how i beat dr. wily is just getting in the air then spamming kirbys down special
Me to
Same
Luis Pizana I use kirby
Then that means
Evil luagh
Luis Pizana I found his up special easier
Me to
I spammed it on every single spirit battle
If we're counting non World Of Light spirits, Baby Bowser is the hardest in my opinion
jigglypuff
up b spam
Is it bad that I knew the exact spirits just from there starting music 😂
No, I did too!
Me too. When I heard the Mega Man music, I knew it was Dr. Wily.
P.S. Who thought Jeff Spirit would be on here?
Nah. You, like most of us, have PTSD. Hearing Snake Eater almost made me have an anxiety attack.
I may be a grammar nazi but it’s their not there
I guess so
8:15 bro explained the omori plot before it even came out
4:56 "early damage"
*is at 162*
Seems pretty early to me
Dr. Wily? Nah. Just spam Kirby’s Up-B.
ATarPΔC i kept spamming down B
•Wolfzie Edits• Me too
I just didn't beat this stage and moved on with my life, I came back to it later, and just did the same thing
I feel like spirits should be taken into consideration as they literally are designed for some battles
And he wasn't even using them. That's impressive
Muffin Man no Wonder why he couldn’t win lol
Hi odds one out
Russell Straight III it’s a fan it’s in his name
@@helainawalters2416 I say it for short
M Bison was a huge pain as you had Super Armour Ganondorf whilst your own defence and attack power sharply dropped.
The 9 volt one was just broken
Pauline has one weakness Being, stream sniped
Solution to every hard battle: use *_kirb_*
Solution to Pauline battle: *_L U C K_*
Yup... *kirb and metal killer and spam the hell out of the hammer move*
#10 Tabuu: Metal Killer
#9 Dark Emperor: Giant Killer
#8 Ho-Oh: Franklin Badge
#7 Geno: Jam FS Charge or KOs Heal Damage
#6 MegaMan.EXE: Zap-Floor Immunity
#5 Giga Mac: Giant Killer
#4 Dr. Wily: Metal Killer
#3 Dry Bowser: Lava-Floor Immunity
#2 The Boss: Poison Immunity/Pauline: Staff Equipped
#1 Caeda: Strong-Wind Immunity
If you can’t tell, he’s ranking them on how hard they are to beat without spirits
For number 8, use Franklin Badge and a Super Armour spirit (Gold Mario) and spam up smash on your starting spot with any character, before the stage transiston to the fire phase, move to the center.
Caeda is too easy for #1
Ranked without spirits and adventure skills. He said it at the beginning
For The Boss, Madame Butterfly is the most useful spirit.
It took me 75 fricking years to get the ho-oh spirit. I was jumping up and down when I finally got the spirit!
4:05 wait, how is Kirby a spirit possessed statue when he wasn’t caught
Basically galeem analyzed his anatomy while he was fighting spirits so he could make copies of him
Meta knight?? I think? That was one thing I never got either.
john Devan wayne if he could just do that why did he have to use the actual characters as a mould
Bundle of Nonsense that’s a good question
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one thinking that
9v and 18v were brutal for me in my current (first) playthrough, as well as kappin without having any wind resist spirits. i managed to get dr wily using metal killer, two stamina up spirits, and spamming byleth side special
fax
Me to for the doctor willy I used metal killer and 2 attack boot and used doctor Mario and spammed down special
Noted
was looking for this comment
For 9v and 18v,you have to kill the assist trophy first.
Once you do,they are vulnerable.
Also,remember to grab the items before they do.
Guess how my brother beat pauline.
She fell of the stage and i am not joking
Jump Up -Super Star Off a Building
Same lol
I had the same thing
After 100s of trys
I knee'd her with C.Falcon. I spent 5000 hours and then finally got the spirit.
I used the super scope it worked
Just a heads-up, I know that this is over a year old, but during the Dry Bowser Spirit Battle, you could've used Kirby's stone to land safely on the lava and restore your ledge grabs
I mean, I finished the story 100%, but these spirits killed my own soul.

You WHAT?
Giga Mac literally drove me insane, twice, yeah. Firstly on spirit board, I used Bowser performing down b to kill him like some people did in their videos, but had no idea how. Second time using Sephiroth and just jumped around to get any chance to shoot fire ball at him or use the straight down stab and quickly run away like there is no tomorrow...
I beat Giga Mac on my first try with very low health because he just acted stupid whilst I bombarded him with Sonic's homing attack
*Nathaniel discusses Giga mac spirit*
Nathaniel: I don't wanna know how much damage Little Mac can deal with his final smash
Me: I've lived long enough to see it.
VERY FREAKING HIGH.
Super Smash Bros X One Punch Man
@@djroscurro9859 lol
I don’t remember how much damage it does, but I know that it’s somewhere around 100HP - 120HP alright.
YUP!
In case anyone forgot, NairoMK 100% completed this whole Story Mode without Spirits. Think about it. Not to mention, he beat the Ho-Oh spirit first try.
He should try the phantom thieves of hearts spirit without spirits or booster things. Living hell that is. 1 year trying to beat that and i failed with many characters.
For the Peach/Pauline one, I just use Samus to shoot her in far distance. The conflict avoiding ones are avoiding the player, but not the projectile
i use lukey just to control some PSI and, you know the drill
I used snake and spammed rockets
I did it with Mii Gunner.
@@igiveup1024 she shields the drill
I used Mega Man with a super armour/hyper smash attacks spirit team. From there, all it took was spamming forward smash, and with the addition of Double Final Smash and Fast FS meter charge, it was far easier than I expected.
The Claus and Ninten spirits were easily the hardest for me. Each took me FOREVER to complete.
8:14 even when fighting blaze the cat, the stage is also on fire, and can’t complete this without a spirit and resistance
But against Blaze the Cat, you could use the platforms
Correction only the platforms are on fire the bottom part doesn't have fire on it
With the special floors, just use Kirby's down special attack and when you turn back into Kirby, start flying. The floor can't hurt you if you are stone and it also can't if you are flying.
It does work for d bowser but not the boss cause look in the top hand right corner it's a timed battle
Kirby's down special is OP.
@@Nico-mh7xq it can tank pretty much any final smash with lot health
how to defy everything: throw kirby at it! spam down special! worked for me
@@AirMadeKat you all heard me it won’t work for the boss because time will eventually beat u
Remember when Alpharad beat Pauline with Olimar in like 2 seconds?
Yeah he beat it through luck
Did you see his ultimate spirit build video?
i beat pauline as mario or bowser because they are in odyssey remember because im a fan of mario
and then they nerfed olimar
For strong wind, King K Rool dashing will keep you stationary and his dash attack can never go off of ledges, so you can spam dash attack for strong wind stages.
